Effect of Matrigel on Human Extravillous Trophoblasts Differentiation: Modulation of Protease Pattern Gene Expression1
1 Nov 2002
Abstract excerpt
The human placenta is characterized by extensive trophoblast invasion of the uterus. Indeed, extravillous cytotrophoblast cells invade the decidua and the upper third of uterine spiral arteries in the myometrium. This invasion is reflected in situ by the expression of specific markers. In order to study this invasion process, we have established an in vitro culture model of human extravillous trophoblast isolated...
